Product description

Author: Aneta Markuszewska

An aristocrat and a townswoman, a nun and a courtesan, a divorcee and a married woman, a child of an orphanage (ospedale) and a representative of a traditional, large family – what did all these women have in common? A love for music. And this was at a time when the art of sound was dominated by men. Despite difficulties in access to professional music education, moral superstitions and the prevailing image of women musicians as vain sinners or sirens seducing men, they consistently pursued their vocation. They lived bravely and with passion. And so was their music.
